I embrace myself
With the memory
Of your presence

Fractured ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #201
All these moments
Become fractured memories
Altered with time
Become fractured memories
Altered with time
In a mind
Bent on manipulating them
To serve the present
Forsaken Library
It had been a library
Once
I guess it still was
Though
What did that matter
Once
I guess it still was
Though
What did that matter
Few
Enough left who could
Read
The irrelevant past
Now
Silly stories of
Love
Self help for plentiful
Times
Dystopian imaginings for a world of
Ease
So it was no wonder salvagers
Found
No value in printed
Words
Lost to Eternity
His memory of them was faint
Especially his father
The moments
Which held them both
Were few
And distorted
Especially his father
The moments
Which held them both
Were few
And distorted
Because he tried so hard
To place features
On their bodies
On their faces
Which he just couldn’t recollect
Over time he’d lost
The recollection of the places, too
How odd
That the one crystal clear element
In this one otherwise tortured image
Was the frame shop
Filled with photographs and paintings
Recorded for eternity
A Record of My Existence
Clouds tumble through the sky
Like the waves roiling on the stormy sea
Thick and dark
Smothering the sunset
Leaving just enough light
To stop the sea and sky in time
Like the waves roiling on the stormy sea
Thick and dark
Smothering the sunset
Leaving just enough light
To stop the sea and sky in time
I capture a moment
In an infinity of moments
Preserved only for so long
As time will allow
Longer than memory, perhaps
A record of my existence
Ever Changing ~ Never Changing
There are places
I’ll remember
All my life
I’ll remember
All my life
Ever changing
Never changing
Just like me
Shadows of Time
Shadows of time
Moments passed
Left to memories
In fading ink
Moments passed
Left to memories
In fading ink
Shadow event
Captured in light
Held in coloured silver
On fading film
